Green manure provides organic matter to the soil and also helps reduce erosion.
“Green manure” is another name given to “cover crops.” Cover crops can be annual rye, cereal grasses, hairy vetch and perennial ryegrass. They are generally planted in the fall, but, in lower and warmer desert regions, they can be planted in the winter as well.
